CBX Clock repair

Post by cross »

Hi Guys,

I found CBX clock but it is running 30 minutes late. Does anyone know as to how difficult and/or expensive is it to repair these?
Thanks

Never tried to have one repaired. Temp gauges would break pretty regularly and they were near impossible to fix, but probably a clock maker could look at it - IF you took it apart for him. Otherwise, the clock looks pretty just sitting in the fairing, working or not.

Thank you Dave Another question for you Dave,
Spark advancer unit, is it good to have a spare?
This guy also has new spark advancer unit but the part nimber that he listed is only for 1979.
30220-422-004, '82 has different part number
It is $100, whats your opinion, should I have a spare?

If you are talking about the mechanical advancer, no, you don't need a spare. They don't wear out and rarely break a spring.
